The Relation between Liberty and Justice in Ali Shariati’ Political Thought

Ethical tenets and political systems are one of the most controversial terminologies in philos o- phy of ethics and political thought. That is why thinkers based upon their intellectual standpoint have reached different inferences and definitions and elaborated various aspects of it  accordin g- ly. Shariati similar to his preceding thinkers made the creation of ethical pol itical system one of his primary goals and in attaining that goal made great efforts and suffered many difficulties so as to be able to express what he was thought. He was trying to promote a desired political sy s-tem in conflation with religion and logic. The main question is that what the relation between liberty and justice in his desired political system is like? Shariati perceives his desired system in the correlation between these two concepts. In fact he regards justice as a breeding ground for freedom and portrays this correlation as a mutual one.
